As they say "Be Yourself, Do Your Own Thing, and work hard. The right people - the one belongs in your life will come to you and stay". #Pak #360 #ParasaEkonomiya.

I always treat myself a trip or a travel during my birthday. It has always been my tradition since 2010. Either I am solo or with someone, I will go travel and wander. So this time, I went to Oman and celebrate my natal day. It was a very solitude and luxurious trip. Me time is sometimes all you need for you to think things clearly. I love the pampering spa that Alila has given. It was such a beautiful treat. Anyways, enjoy the photos and hoping for more birthdays to come for me he he he.

This blog has not been updated since April of 2015 due to the fact that I was busy travelling. Now that I have a enough free time, I can blog now as much as I want.

Anyway, last April this year; I had a memorable trips with my aunties from California. First stop, they stayed in Abu Dhabi as they are coming from San Francisco, USA. Then, we went off to Dubai for some cultural and shopping trips and then went to Maldives for a beautiful holiday trip.

To make the story short, Here are the photos of the trips (from Sand Dune City of Abu Dhabi to the Paradise Island of the Maldives).

It is actually my first time to try Pilates. Hard, Fun, Sweating, Stretching and Core that is
Pilates. Well by the way, what is Pilates? Any idea?

Anyway, Pilates (according to Wikipedia)is a "physical fitnesssystem developed in the early 20th century by the Greek
German-born Joseph Pilates. It is especially practiced in the United
States (where Pilates lived, developed and taught his method) and the United
Kingdom (where he lived and taught early stages of his method). In short, it is
a method as the art of controlled movements, which should look and feel like a
workout (not a therapy) when properly manifested".

"If practiced with consistency, Pilates improves flexibility,
builds strength and develops control and endurance in the whole human
body. It puts emphasis on alignment, breathing, developing a strongpowerhouse, and improving coordination
and balance. Pilates' system allows for different exercises to be modified in
range of difficulty from beginner to advanced or to any other level, and also
in terms of the instructor and practitioner's specific goals and/or
limitations. Intensity can be increased over time as the body conditions and
adapts to the exercise".

So now that I know the great benefits of Pilates in our health, I will regularly attend my Pilates Class either by hook or by
crook. Chass;-)

I am not a fashion critic or a fashion forecaster but when I
saw this in social media I feel the urge to write about it.

Anyhow, In this blog; this is my first article about fashion. FYI
he he he. Well, actually blue denim is always a staple or a must thing to wear
on in our daily lives but maybe I was blown away by the beautiful styling of
the photo that's why I am rushing to vent it.

But I for one always loves
to wear blue jeans or blue denim. It is something that calculated in my mind
that if it is a jeans or denims then it should be blue or must be blue.
Pathetic but I always loves blue.

In fact, I even quote a writer from a fashion magazine saying about blue denim: " it shows that, for this spring/summer
2015 season, they aren’t just thinking about clothes for a life we aspire to –
one of cocktail parties, jet-set getaways and high-powered meetings in office
towers – but also the one we actually live." This is indeed true.

And with that statement, I am excited for the summer or
spring to come this year because I love and I want to wear this blue denim plus the style
that I have in mind. For now, it is a hush hush thing. Some one might copy my style ha ha ha:-)

At first I have a lot of hesitations joining this kind of
activity.Why? because I was thinking that I cannot make it and that I will hyperventilate
or something like that. Ha ha ha Indeed, I am a Gemini; I always over think but now that I tried I am not any more. Anyways, to continue
this article; I am so into this exercise because it is a combination of dance, some martial arts, muay thai's and boxing movements.

Body
Combat is a one hour physical fitness activity. It starts with boxing
movements; basic jabs. I forgot the terms but the work out starts with jabbing
and then together with the movement of the legs. They should in sync together
both hands and legs plus with a rhythmic or dance able tunes; nothing beats this fun. Then
later the martial arts form like kicking out with your legs plus the jabs or the
boxing thing put together. Until, it will be more harder movements and more sweats.
According to Wikipedia and I just found out that there are 12 tracks exercises for
this activity in which provided by Les mills International (the only sole
provider of this fitness exercise in the entire world). And every three months they
reformat the music and movements of this work out.

In fact, I always make sure that I have two body combat work
outs every week (char). I don't know but it's worth, the adrenaline and all the endorphins that
comes out in my body. I felt good after
the work out actually. So I am encouraging you guys to try this out if you want
to live longer and healthier.

This subject is vague for me because I am not in the
authority to talk or write about this matter. I am no Jennifer Hudson (my thin
inspiration) but somehow, I can say or write about losing weight because right
now I lose weight of 5 kg.

Previously, I was 80 kg but as per height and weight
standard; A person with 5'7 or 5'8 height should have 72 or 74 kg weight
maximum. I am 75 kg now (my weight). So it's a 3 kg difference now and soon I will achieve my ideal weight.
In fact, I am still on the process of losing weight more (so help me God).

Well, basically to lose weight is to eat right and exercise.
That is the basic rule and to achieve your ideal weight you need some dedication
and determination in achieving that goal. But actually my secret to lose weight
is not so secret anymore. It's a given fact that losing weight is eating right
amount of food and exercise and my secret is not to eat a lot during dinner or
night time. Eat just right like a salad or milk and banana. Just to avoid
emptiness of your tummy. Then in the morning that is the time you eat full
breakfast to gain energy for the day's hard work. But do not forget to exercise
daily even just for 20 minutes that's
the other secret I've got. Do the exercise later after office or if you are
free.

Losing Weight is a constant struggle for all of us but
always bear in mind that we are not
getting any younger. Our system/metabolism will get slower and slower and to
lessen that we must do something. Aging is not something to be afraid of but
rather to be ready and prepared. Thus, Losing weight is a major factor to avoid aging
fast instead gaining more strength and adding more life.

It's Oscars season again and this time my inner me of being a
fashion critic roars again like a tigress in despair ha ha ha ha (what a term).
So this time who's in my list? Take a wild guess he he he.

Well, for sure a lot
of you have already seen the best dressed lists from different magazines,
social media pages etc. Actually, It's all just the same its just that for the
sake of being relevant; I've come up with my list as well. And here's my best
dressed as in super best (runners up and my winner):

Simple, Sleek and She never goes wrong every Oscar season but shes my 5th best dressed or runners up. Its just that I am longing for more. Very simple for me. I want more edgier with this kind of look. Cate Blanchett rocks her john galliano red carpet gown anyway.

Another runners up for me, the style of the gown has been around but seeing all her total package really works wonder for this model. She wore Marchesa, a London based designer.

Another Runners up for my best dressed, very clean cut and sexy. Tom Ford is indeed great designer. The thing is her hair doesn't complement with her dress. Maybe, a boyish cut or not this style of hair would be appropriate for this gown.

My Second best dressed goes to faith hill a very sleek so appropriate J Mendel gown. So Fresh and Light! Kudos to her great team of stylists, makeup artists, etc.

My Best Dressed: From head to toe to her hair and make up, this trophy wife of John Legend is my best dresed for this season. Shes indeed fierce, glamorous and sexy. Shes wearing Zuhair Murad, a designer from Dubai.
